Ladies and gentlemen, Jordan Peele has done it again! Both his previous movies Get Out and Us were successful movies, so the anticipation for Jordan Peele's Nope is expectedly high. All you need to know is that by the time the final credits started to roll, the packed theater was clapping for joy.

 

Like Peele’s previous movies, it will leave you with questions, theories, and most likely the desire to see it again. Great story, pace, writing, cinematography, and acting. Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer were phenomenal. 

 

My only issue with the movie was the ending. It wasn’t a terrible ending, but while a majority of the movie was well thought out, the end felt rushed. However, overall, It's an enjoyable emotional roller coaster and is perfect for seeing in the movie theaters. I am going to see it again for sure!

 

Nope gets an 8.5/10 in my book and will be in theaters July 22nd. 

Check out photos from the red carpet of Jordan Peele's Nope.

Jordan Peele's highly anticipated feature film NOPE premieres Friday (July 21). Starring in the film is Oscar-winning actor Daniel Kaluuya and Alice's Keke Palmer. Kaluuya previously scored an Oscar nom for Peele's directorial debut Get Out in 2018; Peele won Best Original Screenplay for the film.

In NOPE, Kaluuya and Palmer play sibling ranch owners who are trying to capture the sight of aliens for a large payout and avenge the death of their father. In typical Peele fashion much is left to the imagination but we're sure just like his previous works we are in for a ride.

Take a look at how your favorite celebrities showed up to the NOPE red carpet premiere:

Carl Clemons-Hopkins from HBO's 'Hacks' sported a striped sweater and yellow pants to the 'NOPE' premiere. The outfit is not horrible for a trip to the store but something about wearing it to a red carpet premiere just doesn't sit right with us. So, we're giving his look a solid NOPE.


14. Erika Alexander

Erika Alexander, most notably known for her role as Maxine Shaw in 'Living Single' showed up to the premiere in a black, white, and grey shorts outfit. The actress usually knows how to put a nice look together but unfortunately, this one is not fitting the bill.


13. Kendrick Sampson

'Insecure' actor Kendrick Sampson usually is great eye candy on the carpet and while the beige suit is not entirely bad, a fitted pants option, losing a couple of sparkles on the jacket, and some jewelry would have definitely turned this look around.


12. Betty Gabriel

You might recognize this beauty from Peele's 'Get Out' where she played Georgina the housekeeper. Her black bustier dress completed with a printed skirt is a perfect summer look.


11. Karrueche Tran

There was rarely any color on the carpet which is odd for a summer premiere but where there were colors it most definitely counted. Karrueche stunned in a green plaid suit for an eccentric look.


10. Ayesha Curry

Ayesha Curry always serves a classic look and she does it again here with this beige shirt dress. She glammed up the look with some dark stockings, a chain necklace, and some killer heels.


9. Montana Tucker

Dancer Montana Tucker wore a cutout halter dress with a chain detail and showed out to be one of the best dressed of the night. Tucker's dark lip and straight sleek hair elevated the entire look.

Lupita Nyong'o who previously was the star in Peele's 2019 film 'US,' showed up to the 'NOPE' premiere in this plunged little black dress. When you have a face card like Lupita, a little black dress is all you need.

Brandon Perea who stars in 'NOPE' pulled out all the stops in this oversized purple suit. The simplicity of the outfit paired with some subtle jewelry made the 'NOPE' actor one of the best dressed men of the night.

Keke Palmer was giving body in her ultra cropped white tank and long black skirt. The added gloves, silver chain necklace, and gorgeous glam made the 'NOPE' actress the subject of a lot of conversation at the premiere.


2. Kelly Rowland

We're pretty sure Nazanin Mandi has never flopped on a red carpet in her life. Mandi wore a show-stopping black mini dress and statement gold necklace. The dress and her makeup are nothing short of stunning making this a perfect look and the best of the night.
